DISCUSSION I have a genuine question

Hey guys! I just finished s1 of the series and I heard a lot of people thought the show was bad. I am a casual, never read comics, only watched this and s2 of daredevil. But personally I think that the show is great, I liked the character and Jon is a hell of an actor. Why are people saying that the show is bad (for example compared to daredevil which is an amazing show also)

Cause Bernthal is extremely inaccurate to how Punisher is in the comics in his own show. He was almost perfect in Daredevil season 2, but he was terrible as “Punisher” in his show. The show is also very slow and meandering. Not to mention they shoehorned in a forced relationship with Karen Page and Frank.

Ok, I think you read the comics from what I'm getting here, you know your stuff so I get it if you think that it's not good. I also loved him in DD Season 2, but in his own he was very raw, and violent and I kinda like that more 😃
